The Special Prosecution Office (SPAK) has revealed new details after cracking down on the 'Farruku' criminal group, which is accused of trafficking 5 million euros worth of cocaine within 6 months to Italian markets.

The Special Prosecution Office against Corruption and Organized Crime has made it possible to identify other persons involved in the illegal activity of drug trafficking carried out by the criminal group, hit on 05.11.2024*, in a joint operation with the Florence Prosecutor's Office, Italy.
The structured criminal group served as a wholesale supplier of drugs to the Italian markets, quantities arriving in containers from Latin America to Italian ports (Livorno, Genoa and Savona). This group carried out the activity of drug extraction and distribution, while special teams took care of the recovery of the narcotic substance, the removal of shipments from port areas and making them available to criminal groups.
From the investigative activity carried out in Albania, the identification of the citizen, KB, a member of the structured criminal group, unidentified by the Italian authorities, who was involved in organizing the reception, storing the drugs in Italy and then distributing them on the Italian market was made.
Specifically, he is the organizer of the supply of narcotics, seized on January 27, 2021 on the Guardamiglio (LO) Motorway, Italy, where Albanian citizens; EK and MK were arrested, who were found to be in possession of a quantity of cocaine-type narcotics, with a total gross weight of 10,522 kg, packaged in 9 plastic packages hidden in a compartment of a Ford Fiesta vehicle. In addition to this seizure, there are numerous elements of communications between the arrested KB, with members of the structured criminal group, (already arrested in Italy), proving his role within the structured criminal group.
Also, on 12.01.2024, the decision to impose a security measure issued by the Special Court of First Instance for citizens; MN and JK, previously arrested, following the search warrant issued by the Italian judicial authorities, but for whom investigations were being conducted by the Special Prosecutor's Office within the framework of criminal proceedings no. 296 of 2021, was executed.
The criminal proceedings are still in the preliminary investigation phase and due to the principle of innocence, the responsibility of the persons under investigation will only be definitively established in the event of a final conviction.
